I used a 60 degree triangle after cutting my 6 strip repeats.

Both of these quilt designs are begun the same way. Block sets are cut from repeats of a fabric, usually 6 or 8 pieces per block. Bethany Reynolds coined the phrase Stack-n-Whack for her books and patterns. She incorporated other pieces and blocks in her quilts, so have more of a traditional quilt look, although they can be innovative, too. One Block Wonder is the name given to her quilts by Maxine Rosenthal, and the blocks are placed side by side, filling all spaces. One Block Wonder quilts have a more kaleidoscopic look to them. If you Google both kinds, you should be able to see examples that will give you a good idea of the minor differences.
